can't comment directly on their dino juice, but i use their synthetic blend...called mobil "drive clean plus high mileage" or something like that (10w40).

it's not pure dino juice...but also not pure synthetic...i like it a lot. the first few times i used it, it got pretty black pretty quick...but then it started to not get black so quick...i interpret this to mean it was doing a better job of cleaning than the old dino juice the PO used, so, for the first few times, it was cleaning stuff the old dino juice left behind. switching to it did not cause any seal leaks or anything like that (and it is way cheaper than pure synthetic).

not sure if that is much of a reflection on the stuff you are looking at, though. however, in general, i think mobil makes good oils.
